Lights Out: Ferrari will be 'rapid'... or will they?

Originally written by Joas van Wingerden. This version is a translation.

With the Australian Grand Prix already in the bank, eyes are looking ahead to our second race of 2018 in Bahrain. Lewis Hamilton won in Sakhir last year, but might not be so confident of repeating the trick. It's lights out for Tuesday morning!

MUST READ

Indeed Hamilton believes Ferrari will be "rapid" in Bahrain, but do the Scuderia agree? Perhaps not, as Sebastian Vettel suggests they've gone backwards compared to last year's performance at this time.

The champion should cheer up. He took billing in our stars of the race in Melbourne, despite failing to win.

Max Verstappen was in a spin as he tried to chase Kevin Magnussen. The Dutchman had a scathing assessment of the race as a whole - did you tune in all the way to the chequered flag?

Red Bull chief Christian Horner also delivered a frustrated assessment of their efforts at Albert Park.

It could be worse, Max. You could be driving a Williams. They're "surviving" rather than racing, according to Lance Stroll.

Would you trust Verstappen if you were racing against him? Fernando Alonso doesn't!
